THE ORBIS METHOD
I don't teach from a generic textbook. All study materials are designed and made by me, so every part has a clear purpose and fits into the bigger picture.
Grammar, vocabulary and skills aren’t separate subjects: everything connects. You see the patterns, understand how they work and learn to use the language as a whole.
Lessons revolve around real-life situations: at the supermarket, buying tickets, eating out, at work, at the doctor, when you need your bike repaired, or simply talking to people around you.
Think of it as a personal trainer for language: someone watching what you’re doing, correcting you on the spot, pushing you and adjusting the plan as you go.

MEET MAURICIO
Born in Buenos Aires, based in Amsterdam and endlessly curious about how language shapes the way we think.
I learned Dutch as an adult, studied Philosophy in Dutch and built my teaching method around the questions I had to solve for myself along the way. That outsider’s eye helps me explain what native speakers often simply “feel”.
Spanish is my mother tongue, but it’s also a language I’ve studied in depth. I know its complex grammar, its exceptions and quirks, and the logic that holds it all together.

SIMPLE, TRANSPARENT RATES
Individual Dutch and Spanish lessons are priced as follows:
Prices are final and VAT-exempt.
All study materials are included in the rate and will be provided by me.
BETTER TOGETHER
Learning with a friend, partner or someone you know can make the process more motivating. You can practise together, help each other and stay on track between lessons.
I teach small groups of up to six people and offer a reduced rate per participant. The more people join, the lower the price per person.
